DUDLEY completed a clean sweep of honours as they wrapped up a comprehensive 102-81 aggregate victory over Isle of Wight in the KO Cup final.
Carrying a 25 point lead from the first leg at Monmore Green 24 hours earlier, the Heathens slipped to a narrow 48-44 defeat on the night having been made to pay for a string of errors.
Yet they still did enough to comfortably triumph overall and cap off a historic season which has seen them dominate the third tier of British speedway.
And after adding more silverware to their collection, team boss Will Pottinger revealed their achievements have still not truly sunk in.
He said: "I don't think it's really sunk in yet, all the success we've had this season.
"I don't suppose the loss on the night is of any significance in the end really. It was all about making sure we won the Cup and we did that in the end.
"It's another trophy for the collection and a clean sweep of honours for us this season. It's been an amazing effort from everyone involved, and it's just a shame the season's over now really!"
It was another solid showing from the former Cradley club to ensure they did enough to defend the healthy advantage they built up in the first leg.
Skipper Ashley Morris took a priceless tactical ride win against the impressive Steve Worrall to calm any nerves in Heat 10 on his way to double-figures, paving the way for the impressive Lewis Blackbird and Dan Greenwood partnership to wrap-up victory in the very next race.
Blackbird recovered from a mechanical failure in his opening ride to record two race wins and add ten points, whilst Paul Starke also made paid double-figures with a solid showing against his former club.
Reserve Nathan Greaves suffered some rotten luck with a shed chain and a fall whilst in scoring positions - yet he bounced back to notch a confidence-boosting race win in his final outing.
Gareth Isherwood and Max Clegg also added vital points in the lower order to complete a solid showing and ensure a sizeable travelling contingent were sent home happy.
ISLE OF WIGHT 48: Steve Worrall 14, Ben Hopwood 10, Tom Perry 8, Reece Downes 7, Luke Priest 5+3, Chris Widman 4+2, Darryl Ritchings r/r.
DUDLEY 44: Ashley Morris 11, Lewis Blackbird 10, Paul Starke 8+2, Dan Greenwood 5+1, Nathan Greaves 4, Gareth Isherwood 3+1, Max Clegg 3.
